Ireland missed out on a golden opportunity to win the T20I series, but having won the first game and come very close in the second, they will be looking forward to the one-off ODI on Sunday. Join us for all the action from that game. Until then, take care! Cya!

Alex Cusack is the Man of the Series for his 6 wickets in two matches.

Darren Sammy is the Man of the Match for his superb spell of 4-0-22-3.

The World Champions showed their class, after being restricted to 96 in their 20-overs, the bowlers responded well to defend the small target. The pitch was slow and the ball was not coming on. The bowlers used a lot of slower deliveries to contain the Irish to 85 in their 20-overs. Ireland batsmen never got going as they found it difficult to get the ball off the turf. Wilson tried his best with a patient 35 but he too ran out of partners. All the West Indies bowlers bowled according to the conditions, but Sammy was the pick with 3 wickets.

Ireland have done an excellent job with the ball. After electing to bowl, they have once again restricted the hosts to a below par score. Fletcher got them off to a good start but once he got out there was no one to steady the innings as wickets kept falling at regular intervals. Cusack was the pick of the bowlers with 4 for 11 in his four overs and was well supported by the others. The fielding was brilliant by the visitors as they effected two crucial run-outs.

Hello and welcome to the 2nd T20I between these two teams. West Indies were given a wake-up call before the T20 World Cup, as Ireland got the better of them in the first game. The World Champions will be looking to extract revenge and get back in the groove as quickly as possible. The batting was a big disappointment as none of the batsmen got going after getting starts. But, we can't take anything away from the way the Irish played. The bowlers were disciplined in their display as they restricted the hosts to 116. Then the batters put their hands up and finished off in a clinical manner. However, it is a new day and they will know that the West Indians will come hard at them. Will they be able to repeat the performance from the first game? We will find out soon. Toss and teams coming up in a bit....
